The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s get straight into it for La Station. It’s a reef break that needs a NE swell, and we’re looking at a pretty tough stretch ahead. The whole 16-day window is a bit of a write-off for a proper paddle session, so lower your expectations. There’s a solid run of days with no real recommendation at all.
Things start on Thursday, 6 August. We’ve got small swell pushing in at 3 ft from the NE, with a short period of 8 seconds and weak energy (150). The wind is howling out of the east at 15 mph, making it a choppy cross-shore mess. The water is 84°, which is about average for this time of year. Not a wave you’d paddle for.
Friday and Saturday, 7 and 8 August, are more of the same – the swell bumps up to 5 ft (ENE) but the period drops to a miserable 6 seconds, and the wind stays fresh and cross-onshore. It’s lumpy and ugly. The energy picks up a bit (198-243), but it’s all windslop.
Sunday 9 August through to Tuesday 12 August, the wind is still a problem. Cross-shore and cross-onshore, 12-18 mph. The swell sits around 4 ft to 5 ft, mostly from the E, with periods of 6-7 seconds. The energy is moderate (139-289), but the conditions are just poor. Not one for the quiver.
Now, from Thursday 13 August, things get bigger – but not better. The swell hits 7 ft and then 8 ft by Friday 14 August, with the period stretching to 8-9 seconds. The combined energy jumps up into strong territory (456-1074). That’s a lot of water moving. But the wind is still a fresh onshore or cross-shore mess, and it’s all lumpy. At 8 ft, this is expert-only territory, and with the wind, it’s a washing machine. Looks more like a kite-surfing setup than a day for a surfboard.
The only flicker of hope comes on Saturday 15 August morning, where the system flags it as “marginal” – the swell is 8 ft, period 9 seconds, and the wind is cross-shore. The energy is massive (1040). It’s a powerful E groundswell, but this is a reef break, so with that long period and size, it could be a bit too straight and heavy. The crowd factor is “sometimes,” so you might have it to yourself, but you’ll be fighting a lumpy, cross-shore wind. Not a standout.
The final week, from 17 August to 21 August, the swell slowly drops back from 8 ft to 3 ft. The wind stays onshore or cross-shore most of the time. There’s a brief moment on Tuesday 18 August afternoon where it’s marked “marginal” again – 7 ft, period 8 seconds, cross-shore wind. That’s the best of a bad bunch, but it’s still not a good day.
Honestly, if you’re looking for a clean wave at La Station in this 16-day outlook, you’re out of luck. The wind is just relentless. The bigger swell days are too messy, and the smaller days are sloppy. No real standouts to get excited about.
Rusty.

Information about the La Station Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for La Station provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at La Station can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our La Station surf forecast is unique since it includes wave energy (power) that defines the real feel of the surf rather than just the height or the period.

Very soon you may start to choose your surf days based on the wave energy alone combined with our forecast of favourable offshore wind conditions. Our star ratings will help here and of course you will also find the usual wave height and period predictions on our surf forecasts as well as a full break down of the swell components under our advanced users option (to reveal that, click the little Einstein character under the tide times).
Further information to help with frequently asked questions about our surf forecast for La Station may be found under the help tab on the top menu and also by moving your mouse over the question marks on the surf forecast table itself. Please always bear in mind that the forecast is for near-shore open water and local factors at each surf break influence the actual breaking wave height, such as the beach / reef profile, water depths offshore and shelter.
